Gryphon/X, Copyright 2000-2001 by Darryl Perry

This is the sourcecode to the Gryphon/X BBS program.

Disclaimer:
~~~~~~~~~~~
  o Use at your own risk.
  o No liability is expressed or implied.
  o I will not support this product.

  That being said, I will offer any help I can through email.  email me

Requirements:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

o The Husky project's smapi library is required for the JAM/Squish message 
  base functions.


Installation:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

o extract the archive
o changes the paths in the makefile to suit your needs.
o type 'make gybbs' to build the gybbs binary.
o type 'make gycfg' to build the gycfg binary.
o type 'make gymon' to build the gymon binary. 

o Run ./gycfg and edit all the fields.
o Run ./gybbs and log in as a new user
o Run ./gycfg and enter the user editor and upgrade your new account to sysop.

  By default, the program needs the following paths:

  /bbs/data
      /menu
      /text
      /home
      /msgs
      /file

  You can change them as you wish by using the paths configuration menu in 
  the gycfg program.  However, the proggy does not create the new directories
  for you; you will have to create them yourself.


Configuration:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Gryphon/X BBS is configured through the gycfg program.

  For the most part, Gryphon/X BBS is patterned after the Telegard 3.09 BBS
  package.  The only exception is the ACS control system.  To understand the
  different mci, color and menu codes, look in the included MCI.REF, 
  COLOURS.REF, and MENU.REF files.  These files are from the Telegard 
  distribution, but they should work for Gryphon/X for the most part.

  If some function or mci code does not work as you would expect, it's
  prolly because it hasn't been made functional yet.

Conclusion:
~~~~~~~~~~~
  You may use this code as you wish.  Please retain any copyright notices 
  that you find on the code.  Also, please let me know if you do use this 
  code, if only for my own vanity.
